I wish.

I wish that for once my hair would do what I want, I wish that your eyes would stop haunting my thoughts. I wish I knew what I'd be good at in life, I wish I knew why I like to start fights. I wish that my bitterness would go away, I wish that I would have begged you to stay. I wish I could decipher lust from love, I wish I knew why I wasn't enough. I wish that I could let people in more, I wish I wasn't so familiar with my bathroom floor. I wish that the porcelain would stop calling my name, I wish I could put down the razors, but I deserve the pain. I wish that it was easier to get on the right track, I wish I could take a step, without taking three back. I wish that my wishes would always come true, But all I can do is wish, and hope that they do.
